We finally made the transition from the crib to a big girl bed for Avery. I love her new little bed and she is actually sleeping in it almost all night. I was a little sad taking the crib down even though it's set up in the other bedroom for the baby. So dumb! It must be pregnancy hormones. I did love the way her nursery was decorated though, but her new room is already turning out cute. It just needs a little more TLC.
We went to Temple Square to see the Christmas Lights tonight! It was such a warm and perfect night to go! We couldn't even see our own breath and our lungs didn't hurt from being so cold outside like I usually remember it being. It is always so worth going every yr though and I never get sick of it. It's so beautiful! Avery loved it this yr which made it even more fun! She kept pointing to all the lights and she would get so excited! We love the Christmas season!
I love these pics of Avery in her princess hat! She has had it for awhile but never really liked to play with it till a few days ago. Now she can't put it down! I asked her if she was a princess and she said,"Yeah" as if she knows what that even means! I think she does make a pretty cute princess though!
A couple of nights ago Avery was sleeping on our big Soft Spot and she looked so sweet and peaceful that I just had to take a pic of her. A few min. later I heard a bump and when I checked on her she had fallen off and was still fast asleep. She must have taken after me and can fall asleep and stay asleep anywhere. She looked even cuter on the floor though all curled up with her BEAR bum sticking out!
We found out we are having a GIRL! I am so excited and I'm sure Tony will come around! Just Kidding. He is happy too! I'm excited to have 2 little girls be kinda close together and hopefully be great friends! My sisters and I are 6 and then 12 yrs apart so 3 yrs is close to me. Also, this baby will be born the same season as Avery was so I already have many cute little clothes!Convenient! It was so fun to see the ultrasound and to see her move around like crazy! We are having difficulties with scanning the pics of the ultrasound but hopefully we will figure it out soon so I can post it.
So Avery couldn't have been a bigger little stinker or should I say witch this Halloween when it came to taking pictures! She would not smile for me!!! She did have fun though so I guess that's all that matters although I may just put her back in her costume this week and try and get a few cute pics. On Thur. Avery had a Halloween party at preschool and they did face painting and other fun activities. Then on Fri. morning we went to an assisted living facility with some neighbor friends and let the kids trick-or-treat. Then that night we went to see family in Herriman and let the kids trick or treat and of course I forgot my camera. It was a fun and busy Halloween!
We went to the Thanksgiving Point petting zoo this past week which we have done kind of a lot this past summer. This time though was exciting because Avery rode the pony all by herself with no help from me! In the past I walk right beside her and hold on to her so she didn't fall off. Those days are long gone. Even though this isn't the best pic, I thought it was cute because she is so happy and proud of herself that she is riding the pony all by herself. She is getting to be such a big girl!
